Lights, dozens of small lights met his eyes, it was horrible and made a headache so big he wanted to growl out every foul words he knew. He shut his eyes closed. He laid on something soft, a bed maybe, his head rested on a pillow and his legs rested on another pillow. What was the point with that? Oh, because it felt comfortable? Yes, that's what he guessed.
"Mum, mum! He's awake!" a chair fell to the ground, the Hiwatari opened his eyes and saw a boy, probably his age. The lad had climbed out of his chair fast enough for the chair to smash into the wall. A door slammed open and a beautiful woman came running in with her hands in font of her mouth, she ran towards his bed. She felt his forehead, it felt like it was boiling under her cold hands. "c-can you speak?" she spoke with a tiny voice and he opened his mouth to respond but all that came was a cracked 'hn'. The blond boy, now on the woman's right ran out of the white-painted room.
The boy came back with a glass of water which the bed-laying boy drank up at once. "can you speak now?" asked the woman again. "yes" He mumbled and coughed.
"can you tell me your name?"
"um…Kairo … Hiwatari"
"that's a beautiful name, son. I'm Mary Nova and this is my son Rino" the woman named Mary said softly and laid a hand on her son's shoulder. "My husband will be back shortly, his name is Jason. He's out buying groceries. We'll be having dinner in about two hours. You can come down and eat with us if you want." And so the woman placed her hand on Kairo's forehead again before she left.
"Hey, just one question, and I'll leave you too, Okay?" Rino said and pushed his chair up besides the bed and sat down on it. Kairo nodded and closed his eyes, waiting for the question he knew would come. "why were you lying bleeding in my garden?" the question weren't really what he had expected. "Because I had been running for hours, fought animals and hiked" Kairo answered with a cough now and then. "Kinda like a whore then?" Rino said and laughed before he got up from the chair and walked towards the door, he turned and accepted –with a laugh- the death glare Kairo had sent him.

The table was filled with food, liquids, candles and plates. He had barely made it down the stairs when Mrs. Nova came running towards him, wanting to help.
"thanks" Kairo mumbled when she had assisted him towards the table. He sat down on the chair Mary had pointed out for him. Trying to hold the shrieking pain back he placed his feet as comfortable he could, which made him sink really low into the chair.
"Mum, you have lain to many plates again. There is one too many." The boy had entered the mostly vanilla-coloured dining room. It was a little disgusting; it reminded him about the few days he had spent at a mansion in Moscow.
"Oh dear, I'm sorry, I always forget" The woman was crying, her hands shook when she lifted the plate to get it back into the kitchen. "I'm sorry about that; my mum will never get over the loss of my brother. He died three days ago" The boy said it so calmly it sounded like he was talking about an everyday-thing. "His name was Eron, he was 16." Rino continued to talk about his brother. "He died in a car-accident."
Rino had stopped talking the second his mum had come and asked them to sit down, telling them that her husband would be there soon.
At first Kairo thought they were crazy, all of them. None of them seemed to care that a total stranger had laid bleeding on their garden the day before. It was like they didn't mind what he was up to or why the hell he had gotten so far away from 'home'. Neither did Rino seem bothered about talking about his brother. He died three days ago for Christ's sake!
Rino and his now entering dad were dressed in dark blue suits, white shirts and blue ties. Mrs. Nova was dressed in a autumn coloured dress, it looked really expensive, so from the looks of the house and their clothes Kairo concluded they were pretty rich. He himself was dressed in something black, or maybe blue, he could not make out what it was but it looked better than his old clothes. Which Mary told Kairo was to ripped up to just wash for him and let him wear them, truth is she threw them into the garbage to never see them again.
"so, boy, you've come all the way from Moscow, huh? Wow. You must be exhausted,
I'll get the maid to clean out a room for you, I guess you'll be staying for awhile." Mr. Nova said in a hurry. Staying? Who said anything about staying? Ah well.
All Kairo could do was nod. Maybe he would stay for a few days.
"Dad, I got an idea!" Rino had stood up from his chair and it pretty much looked like a lightening-ball glowed over his head. "That's great, son!" Mr. Nova responded and laughed a little. "Kairo can sleep in Eron's room!" and so Mrs. Nova's eyes was filled with tears.
"I'm not sure Rino…it's not long since he went away, and his stuff is still there" Jason pondered.
"But why not? It's not like this guy has anything with him. All he had was his beyblade, dad!" Rino argued and pointed at Kairo who could just agree, he had nothing else with him.
"well, I—I don't know son"
"mum...please? It'll be like you have your son again!"
Rino should obviously not have said that, his mum had broke into a river of tears, but she nodded, for almost a minute. "I-It's o-o-okay."
The Nova's seemed to like pastel colours very much cause in every room Kairo had been there was always some kind of light colour. That dead guy's room was blue, it hurt Kairo's eyes. "Well, yeah. This is Eron's room. That's his bed; you're going to sleep on it. That's his drawers; you can use them if you want too." Jason said and pointed at the objects as he talked.
A window hovered above the wall, it had a windowsill you could sit in, perfect for the Hiwatari who usually sat up at nights. On the other walls hang pictures of people who Kairo guessed was Eron's friends. Also there hung posters of cars and bikini-girls. A typical teenager, this dead Nova.
"We're going to Japan tomorrow, dad just bought you a ticket. I hope you don't mind." Kairo had just closed his eyes, just started to relax, just started to fall asleep. Staring up into the ceiling he nodded, a 'ok' escaped his lips. Rino slammed the door after himself. What an annoying brat Kairo thought, rolling his eyes.
There was a girl in the ceiling, a picture. Big one. She was pretty, blue eyes, flowing brown hair, a beautiful smile and a well-shaped body. Not that he cared. It must have been Eron's girlfriend. Or whatever.
